Re^5: Storing/parsing perl data structure in/from a file

It's correct that do file means slurp + eval but your data only defines an anonymous hash on the top level.

{
  alpha => {
    beta => {
      gamma => theta,
      delta => lambda,
    },
    beta => {
      gamma => zeta,
    },
  },
},

you need to add a variable name!

How can I manually `slurp + eval` if I have a named hash?	[reply] [d/l]
